OVERVIEWOne of 10 siblings in his family, Harris' first name, Corperryale, is a mixture of a cousin (Corrine), an uncle (Perry) and the "ale" of his immediate siblings -- Janelle, Jerrelle and Al. His sister, Janelle, is also a standout basketball player at Marquette.

The junior shooting guard had long desired to play for Michigan and signed in 2006. Even though Harris played just three seasons for the Wolverines, he finished 10th in school history in scoring (1,668 points), hitting double figures in 83-of-98 games. He became just the third junior in UM annals to reach the 1,600-point club and ranks 32nd all-time among Michigan players with 559 rebounds.

Harris is ninth in school history with 366 assists, become the 12th Wolverine to surpass 300 assists. He also ranks seventh on the UM career-record chart with 144 steals. His versatility and athleticism saw him lead the team in scoring, assists and steals in each of his last two seasons. In 2009, he became just the second player in school annals to record a triple-double, as he totaled 18 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists vs. Northern Michigan.

At Redford High School, Harris was the recipient of the state of Michigan's Hal Schram Mr. Basketball Award in 2007, becoming the first Detroit public school player to win the award since Redford's Dion Harris in 2003 and the eighth player from the public school ranks to earn that accolade since the award began in 1981. The two-time Associated Press Class A All-State first-team, Detroit News and Detroit Free Press Dream Team and All-Metro team pick was also named to the Detroit Free Press State Championships All-Tournament team as a senior.

The McDonald's All-American selection averaged 24.8 points, 9.5 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game during his four-year career, starting his final three seasons. He averaged 18.4 points as a sophomore, helping Redford to a 20-3 record and the Class A regional finals of State Championships, losing to Detroit Pershing, 80-52. As a junior, he totaled 22.5 points, 7.5 rebounds and 4.5 assists, as Redford went 23-4 and won the PSL title.

In his final season, Harris produced averages of 33.5 points, 11.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists, as Redford compiled a 21-7 record and went to the Class A State championship game, where they lost to Saginaw, 79-57, despite Harris totaling 31 points, 10 rebounds, four steals, two blocks and an assist.

Harris was an instant hit upon his arrival at Michigan. Starting all 32 games, he became the fourth U-M freshman to score over 500 points in a season (516). He set the team freshman record for free throws made in a season (156, fifth overall). He also led the team in scoring (16.1 points per game), free throw percentage (.817) and steals (45), earning All-Big Ten Conference second-team, Big Ten All-Freshman Team, Academic All-Big Ten and team MVP honors.

As a sophomore, Harris was an All-Big Ten first-team, Academic All-Big Ten and All-District choice. The only Wolverine to start every game, he became the sixth sophomore in school history to reach 1,000 career points. He was one of two players in the Big Ten to rank among the top 10 for scoring, rebounding and assists, as he led U-M in scoring (16.9), rebounding 6.8), assists (4.4), steals (1.2), minutes (32.9), three-point field goals (52) and free throw percentage (86.3 percent).

A third-team All-Big Ten choice in 2009-10, Harris was named team MVP, as he again led the Wolverines in scoring (18.1 points per game), assists (126) and steals (56) for the second-straight season. His average of 1.8 steals ranked second, his 18.1 points ranked fourth and his 4.1 assists ranked fourth among the conference participants.

SCOUTING REPORTPositives: Harris might lack the size for the "two" guard slot, but he has the wingspan (6-feet-7 1/4), standing reach (8-6) and leaping ability (38-inch vertical) to compensate...He ha a solid, muscular frame with minimal body fat (3.8 percent), but has to improve his overall core strength...Is a better fit as a combo guard; shows the passing and ball-handling skills (366 assists in 98 games) to play the point but has the body and shooting touch to play the "two"...Drives hard into the lane and can finish with either hand around the basket...Has a strong defensive presence, using his reach to disrupt shooters (144 steals) and even though he gives up several inches, he times his leaps to alter shots (36 blocks)...Has the body control and balance, along with good court vision to break down the defense and draw contact on the way to the rim (82.7 percent free throw shooter)...Stays low in his stance with hands active, along with the footwork and lateral agility to stay in front of his man...Efficient with 559 rebounds, most because of his ability to slip under and angle to the glass...Gets good elevation on drives to the rim, gliding through the air to draw fouls (free throw shooting is a big asset)...Uses his slashing agility well to get to the basket...His long wingspan compensates for a lack of bulk, as he keeps his hands high and active...Creates mismatches for guards because of his wingspan, but will need to get faster to compete at the next level...Has good, soft hands to grab the one-bounce pass and drive to the rim...Best when he sets his feet and squares his shoulders before shooting...Scrappy defender who uses his long arms and lateral agility to get in the face of a shooter out on the perimeter...Intelligent player who has the ability to rotate to several positions, depending on the offensive scheme...Explodes off the ground and times his leaps well to get around the slower opponent in attempts to secure rebounds...Has a good concept for using angles in his drive to the basket and shows good change-of-direction agility.

Negatives: Has just adequate range and shoots with an erratic release (low launch point and will push from the hip) when trying to get off his jumper with a defender in his face...Does not have the core strength to challenge wings and has to work on developing lower-body power...When he gets bounced out of the lane, he will retreat to the perimeter, where he lacks consistent range...Needs to look to set up others when his shot isn't falling but has a shoot-back-into-a-rhythm mentality...Gets out of control with the ball in his hands and needs to improve playing without the ball to be effective in a half-court offense...Generally shies away from contact (does not like to be pressured).

--Report by Dave-Te' Thomas

Compares To: LARRY HUGHES, Charlotte -- Harris needs to get into a good training program and improve his core strength to defend vs. NBA guards. He can earn minutes at the point and has the ability to play shooting guard. He lacks range in his perimeter game, but is a decent finisher around the rim if he can learn to finish through contact.
